Decode Label Safety Score
How we got 1.5 ShowHide
Reviewed 3 times · Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This chocolate candy is a highly processed food with a very high sugar content (37%), which is the primary nutritional concern. While almonds and cocoa solids offer some nutritional value, their benefits are overshadowed by the high sugar and processed nature of the product. It is not suitable for regular consumption, especially for young children due to the high sugar load.
At a glance

What’s favorable

- Almonds
- Cocoa Solids
Very high in sugar and highly processed, with additives.
This chocolate candy is primarily sugar, making up 37% of the product, which is a significant concern for overall health and dental hygiene. It also contains palm oil, contributing to saturated fat, and uses generic terms like 'Raising agent' and 'Emulsifier' without specific identification, which limits transparency. While it contains some beneficial ingredients like almonds and cocoa, their presence is minor compared to the sugar content.

Ingredient Concerns safety database
Sources cited below may be Indian (FSSAI) or international (EU, US, WHO, IARC) — an international classification or law is evidence, not an Indian regulatory finding.
Palm Oil
Palm oil is very high in saturated fatty acids (~50%), which raise LDL cholesterol and increase cardiovascular risk with regular high consumption. Refined palm oil can also carry processing contaminants (glycidyl esters and 3-MCPD esters), which EFSA assessed in 2016.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: WHO; Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health; EFSA CONTAM opinion (2016)
Palm Oil: regulation, sources and other products →Decode Label Analysis
Very high added sugar content (37%) is a significant nutritional concern, contributing to excess calorie intake and potential health issues like dental caries, weight gain, and increased risk of type 2 diabetes.
Contains palm oil, which is high in saturated fat and has environmental concerns related to its production. EFSA has also noted potential contaminants from its refining process.
Claim check
Front-of-pack marketing claims checked against this product's actual ingredients and nutrition. "Can't verify" means the label does not provide enough information to check the claim — it is not the same as the claim being false.
The term "Gourmet" is a subjective descriptor and cannot be objectively verified from the provided label information.
The ingredients list almonds and cocoa solids, supporting the 'Nutty' and 'Chocolate' aspects of the claim.
The nutrition information states 0 g of trans fat per 100g.
The nutrition information states 0 mg of cholesterol per 100g.
Read straight from the back-of-pack photo — quantities, sections and any disguised terms, so the small print can’t hide behind the marketing.

Trace amounts: some named ingredients appear in token quantities or low in the list. At these concentrations a meaningful benefit is unlikely, and their front-of-pack prominence may not reflect their level in the formulation.
In label order — normally largest quantity first. Select a row for the full write-up and sources.
These are major food allergens named on the ingredient list. They are a risk only to people allergic to them — not a general-population safety issue — so they do not lower the safety score. Anyone with the allergy should avoid this product, and check the pack’s own allergen statement.
The label declares each of these as a blend and then lists what is in it. The components appear in the groups above on their own merits, so the blend itself is shown here rather than counted a second time.

About this analysis: Based on declared label information and available evidence. Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test products, and a score is not a regulatory determination or medical advice.
Disclaimer: Safety scores are Decode Label-generated assessments based on publicly available regulatory data (FSSAI, WHO, EFSA, IARC) and peer-reviewed research. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and they are not a regulatory determination, a laboratory safety certification or a medical diagnosis. Ingredient safety can vary by individual health conditions, concentration, and usage context. Decode Label is an independent information service and scores every brand by the same rules. No brand pays for or influences its score. Our founder also founded the personal-care brand Botani Bestie (see our story); its products are scored exactly like everyone else's. Data limitations: This assessment is based on the information declared on the product label and the evidence sources above — Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test this product. Ingredient concentrations, sourcing and manufacturing can vary between batches and are not always disclosed. A finding that is not shown here means it was not identified from the available label information, not that it has been ruled out.
